Ancient Turkey was key to the growth of Christianity. From magnificent Ephesus, where Paul preached and John is buried, to Nicaea, modern Iznick, where the Christian Creed was established, Turkey lends itself to unveiling the culture and history that necessitated the spreading of the “Good News” throughout the Mediterranean and prompted John to write his letters of warning and commendation from Patmos.
